Abstract

The performance of automotive transmission systems largely depends on the efficiency and reliability of the clutch mechanism. A multi-disc wet clutch is widely used in motorcycles, racing vehicles, and automatic transmission systems due to its high torque-transmission capacity, compact design, and efficient heat dissipation. This research presents a detailed study on friction analysis in a multi-disc wet clutch system using both experimental and numerical approaches.

Experimental analysis involves measuring torque, speed, and thermal characteristics using a controlled test rig, while numerical modelling is performed using fundamental friction and heat transfer equations.

Keywords: Friction analysis, ,Thermal effects, Wear analysis, Tribology.
